Victims of past attacks came together in the Capital on Tuesday
Enough is enough, said victims of terror, who had gathered in the Capital on Tuesday, at the headquarters of All India Anti-Terrorist Front (AIATF). The 13/7 Mumbai blasts have rekindled the widespread anger that was bottled up inside victims and their relatives for years.

Ganga Devi, wife of Late Nanak Chand who lost his life in the terrorist attack on Parliament on December 13, 2001 is still angry with the government. She said: "The government has not done anything till date. If the government is trying to save these terrorists from death then it is committing a bigger crime than the terrorists."
Not just Ganga Devi; present here were many family members of martyrs who gave up their lives protecting others. They demanded that every terror convict including Ajmal Kasab and Afzal Guru be hanged. "Government may not have money for us but they still can treat terrorists like VIPs," Ganga added.

"Government promised us a petrol pump but we got nothing. No land was given to us. My husband gave his life for the country. But no one after that cared to ask whether my kids and I were all right or not," complained Shakuntala whose husband Chaman Singh died in the Kargil war.
Kuldeep Singh, a DTC driver who threw a bomb out of his bus, risking his life to save others on October 29, 2005 lost an eye and suffered 40% burns in the incident. "I just want the terrorists to be hanged because there is no point wasting so much money on those who came here to kill us," he said.
